So if any interested person can fill the above require- ments their chances of being elected at the present time would seem to be a shoo-in. Coun. Ken Jackson, who is also president of Flamingo Pastries Ltd., said he has been forced out of the contest by demands connected with the large expansion now under- going at his plant. Coun. Jackson noted that to do a good job on Council he would have to devote more of his time and at present his Contribution Appreciated Port Perry's contribution of $100 to the Sudbury and Area Disaster Relief Funds hasn't gone unnoticed. The Village was officially thanked for its contribution in a letter from Sudbury last Wednesday The thank-you note read im part: "You may be assured and comforted in the know ledge that all funds derived from this campaign are being directed to the benefit of those unfortunate individuals who were left injured and destitute by this dasnster' Candidates Wanted business is "too demanding." He said his term on council had been a good experience and had broadened his scop: of thinking. "If people could run into the problems that are faced by council they would appreciate it better," he said. Deputy-reeve Beare said his main reason for not seeking re-election is the hefty council workload combined with county council duties. In Scugog Township, Grace Love, the incumbent deputy- reeve; Clifton Crowell, incum- bent councillor and Phil Go- reski, who finished a close second to Mrs. Love when he ran for deputy-reeve in the last election, have indicated they will seek further terms. Reeve Cecil Fralick says he will wait until nomination night before deciding. Coun- cillors Helen Redman and William Bell have not com- mitted themselves as yet. In Cartwright township Reeve Lawrence Malcolm has said he will seek another two- year term along with Coun. Vernon Asseltine who will make a bid for the enue reeve position. Other Cartwright coun- cillors are uncommitted. | ° Disagree On Council has promised to investigate a complaint from J.W. Cooper of 214 Water St. that damage to his property caused by the installation of sewers has not been repaired. In a letter to council Mr. Cooper said he had been pro- mised by the contractor and Coun. Phil Orde (who lives across the street) that top soil and sod would be replaced. Mr. Cooper claims that the side of the road in use at the present time is about six fi inside his property line. And that trucks are running over the town and his private drain which is less than one foot under the ground at pre- sent. He asked council to take steps to protect both of these drains from vehicle damage and winter freeze-up and to restore his property to normal. "Mind if 1 take a look?" -, County Engineer W.A. Twel- Ownership Coun. Orde said he was sure that contrary to what Mr. Cooper believes the six feet of property in question is owned by the Village. "He thinks he owns the road allowance but he doesn't," siad Coun. Orde, who added that council should get the property surveyed to end the problem. Council agreed to investi- gate the matter.

Mr. Kenny was introduced by Gord Prentice, a past pres- ident of the club and Mr. Ken- ny, also a past president, dwelt to some extent on the brief Ontario County Council re- cently presented to Oshawa Area Planning and Develop- ment Study. The major portion of the brief was printed in the Star last week, and is too lengthy to be repeated. However, in his speech, Mr. Kenny also discussed the advantages and disadvantages of Regional Government looking from a local angle and brought to light several interesting points. Pete Petrozzi extended thanks and presented Mr. Kenny with a small gift on behalf of the club. Three members from the East Kingston Lions Club and one member from the Oshawa Club attended the meeting.
